Francesca Cabada

If you’re looking for support in either couples work or debilitating anxiety, I've got you.

I’m a Marriage and Family Therapist who works with both couples as well as with individuals struggling with anxiety disorders such as OCD, intrusive thoughts, and specific phobias. I help couples better understand the patterns that keep them stuck in conflict, disconnection, or relationship anxiety. My interest in anxiety treatment is also personal. Having experienced OCD myself, this work became deeply meaningful to me and gave me a unique understanding of what it feels like from the inside out to live with intrusive thoughts, fear, and uncertainty. Because of that journey, I’m also especially passionate about helping clients who feel trapped by debilitating anxiety.

In my couples work, I draw from attachment-based approaches and Emotionally Focused Therapy to help partners slow down negative cycles, understand each other more deeply, and build a more secure and supportive connection. For anxiety, OCD, and phobias, I primarily use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), an evidence-based treatment that helps people gradually face fears while reducing the compulsions and avoidance that keep anxiety going.

As a couples therapist, I utilize a warm and empathetic approach, focusing on empowering you to tap into your strengths and build a stronger, more fulfilling relationship. I also offer both ongoing therapy and focused treatment intensives for individuals who want to make faster progress working through anxiety or phobia-related fears. If you’re unsure what type of therapy might best support your situation, schedule a consultation call with me or visit my website and we can find the approach that is most tailored to your experience.
